About This Book

What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. This is a purely educational concept book.
Ideal Reader
A toddler between 12 and 30 months who is beginning to develop language and show an interest in sorting or categorizing objects. This book is perfect for the child who points at things inquisitively, trying to make sense of their environment, and for the caregiver who wants to provide the vocabulary for those observations.
Parent Prep
No preparation is necessary. The book is self-explanatory and can be read cold. The value comes from the parent's interaction: pointing, naming, and connecting the shapes in the book to objects in the room. A parent sees their toddler trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, or notices them pointing at the wheels on a toy car with fascination. The parent realizes it's time to move from just naming objects to describing their attributes, and they need a simple tool to begin that conversation about shapes.
